These figures use each pledge’s own scope. The chart below measures every pledge the same way, so its numbers can differ.
Pledges to pathways
Every target South Sudan has communicated, turned into an emissions pathway and set against its observed emissions.

Scope & conditionality
Coverage and conditionality are derived from our structured assessment of the active submission. The target is shown as submitted, in its own scope. The chart above measures every pledge the same way (AR6, excl. LULUCF), so its numbers can differ.
Unconditionally: Unchanged business-as-usual emissions.

“GWP unclear”: the submission does not say which global warming potentials it uses.
Submission history
We have quantified every NDC and long-term strategy South Sudan has submitted since 2015, including the pledges it has since superseded, so the evolution of ambition reads oldest to newest.
